Has anyone here ever been to the Badlands in Attica, Indiana? I generally take my Tracker there at least once a year and always for an event called the ZookiMelt. It's a great place! Anyone been?

Yeah I have been there. Great fun. The trails need to be marked better so you can find the start of them other than that great place.

Yeah, they could mark those trails a little better. When they have the 'melt they have signs out, but those are just for people to meet at to follow trail guides.

I have been there a couple of times. Great place.

Also been to Cliffs Insane Terrain too. Another great place, altough the Cliffs are not body friendly.

My buddy who also has a tracker and had a trooper he took there before a few times but he has been bugging me to get out there, i just dont have time for it due to work, he likes it enough to go back even if its a little over 2 hours from us. I will be going next year once I have some PTO built up. Ill post up before we do, maybe make a regional meet out of it?

That could work. I'd probably take the Tracker, but it would be nice to see some Blazers in action. I don't think I've ever seen one there.

I saw a completly gutted one there once, but that is the only one I have seen there other than me.

Meet, greet, and run next year sounds like a good time.

Of course, there are Jeeps of all kinds there except during the ZookiMelt. Then a lot of the Tracker's family comes to visit.
